Application Abreviews Notes 1 Application Abreviews WB Notes 1/1000 - 1/10000. Predicted molecular weight: 48 kDa.Can be blocked with Zic1 peptide (ab201520). ICC/IF 1/100 - 1/250. Flow Cyt 1/100 - 1/1000. ab172730-Rabbit monoclonal IgG, is suitable for use as an isotype control with this antibody. Application notes Is unsuitable for IP. Target Function Acts as a transcriptional activator. Involved in neurogenesis. Plays important roles in the early stage of organogenesis of the CNS, as well as during dorsal spinal cord development and maturation of the cerebellum. Involved in the spatial distribution of mossy fiber (MF) neurons within the pontine gray nucleus (PGN). Plays a role in the regulation of MF axon pathway choice. Promotes MF migration towards ipsilaterally-located cerebellar territories. May have a role in shear flow mechanotransduction in osteocytes. Retains nuclear GLI1 and GLI3 in the cytoplasm. Binds to the minimal GLI-consensus sequence 5'-TGGGTGGTC-3'. Tissue specificity CNS. A high level expression is seen in the cerebellum. Detected in the nuclei of the cerebellar granule cell lineage from the progenitor cells of the external germinal layer to the postmigrated cells of the internal granular layer. Detected in medulloblastoma (26/29 cases), but not present in all other tumors examined. Sequence similarities Belongs to the GLI C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. Contains 5 C2H2-type zinc fingers. Domain The C2H2-type 3, 4 and 5 zinc finger domains are necessary for transcription activation. Cellular localization Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Localizes in the cytoplasm in presence of MDFIC overexpression. Anti-Zic1 antibody [EPR7291(2)] images 2 Overlay histogram showing SH-SY5Y cells stained with ab134951 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab134951, 1/1000 dilution) for 30 min at Flow Cytometry - Anti-Zic1 antibody [EPR7291(2)] 22°C. The secondary antibody used was (ab134951) Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H&L) (ab150077) at 1/2000 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rabbit IgG (monoclonal) (0.1μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control. Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter. This antibody gave a positive signal in SH-SY5Y cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.
